Abstract: The capping head is designed to fix a capsule (11) on the top of a bottle neck by deformation. The capping head has a series of planetary rollers (4) which rotate around the capsule on rods (2). The rods are mounted on the cylindrical head by articulated joints (3) situated at the opposite end to the rollers. The head also has an intermediate outer member for applying a pressure to the rods, made in the form of a ring with a series of balance arms (6). The balance arms have their own pivots (7), are able to apply a pressure to the individual rollers, and equipped with springs. The ring which supports them is able to move up and down the head and be locked in the required position by spring-loaded balls.

Abstract: A cable (5) is inserted in a tube (2) wound on a tube reel (1). The cable is fed from a cable reel (6) through a cable-advancing unit (4) into a free inlet end (2.1) of the tube (2). Compressed air is applied to an air inlet (8) of the advancing unit (4), and led through the tube along the cable already inserted in the tube. The tube reel is put on a support 7, which is driven to a periodic movement in the vertical direction between to extreme positions (amplitude A, period P). During part of each period the movement is a free fall, or at least approximates a free fall. The movement may be sinusoidal with period P=2 pi [A/g]+E,fra 1/2+EE  (g is gravitational constant). In this case, the support (7) may be part of a rotatably supported lever, or may be part of a seesaw. In addition, the movement may be the vertical component of a maintained swinging movement. In this case the support (7) may be the swinging part of a Chinese swing.

Abstract: Binding of a molecule to a molecular receptor is sensed using a transistor having a gate located at a binding site. The channel conductance of the transistor is modified by a charge associated with the molecule when the molecule binds with the molecular receptor. A modified electrical characteristic of the transistor which results is sensed to sense the binding event. Electric field enhancement is provided by applying a voltage to the gate. A second sensing transistor can be coupled to the sensing transistor to form a differential pair. The differential pair allows for enhancing and sensing of differential binding events.

Abstract: The invention concerns the adjustment of the linear distribution of an injected shearing fluid, during casting, through a slot (20) provided in the cooled metal body (1)-refractory riser block (14) interface of an ingot mold for continuous metal casting charge and emerging along said ingot inner periphery, the latter being provided with clamping means for adjusting the slot thickness. The invention is characterized in that it consists in "cold" injecting through said slot (20) a regulating inflammable fluid, which is ignited on its exit from the slot, and in acting on the clamping means (25, 26, 28, 29) such that the height of the flames (39) coming out of the slot (20) is substantially constant along the whole ingot inner periphery. The invention provides the advantage of an accurate and lasting adjustment of the injected flow rate without requiring the adjustment of the injection slot thickness. The invention is applicable to continuous steel charge casting in particular.

Abstract: The invention relates to connection-oriented packet-based telecommunication networks such as ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) and particularly to route optimization in such networks. A network node (20) on the route adds to a packet flow a special packet comprising a unique code which the network node (20) locally uses for identifying the special packet and for associating the special packet to a particular formed connection. If there is a loop on the path (2,BTS1,3) the special packet added to the packet flow returns back to the same network node. When the network node detects that the special packet provided with the unique code returns back, it may conclude that on the path of the connection to which the unique code is associated to, there is a loop that should be eliminated. Thereafter the network node may internally switch an optimal path (1,4,BTS2) bypassing the detected loop (2,BTS1,3). Furthermore, the network node preferably releases the loop in a manner characteristic of the network. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention also the elimination of the detected loop is based on the use of the special packet.

Abstract: The gene encoding a 4-hydroxybutyryl-Co A transferase has been isolated from bacteria and integrated into the genome of bacteria also expressing a polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase, to yield an improved production process for 4HB-containing polyhydroxyalkanoates using transgenic organisms, including both bacteria and plants. The new pathways provide means for producing 4HB containing PHAs from cheap carbon sources such as sugars and fatty acids, in high yields, which are stable. Useful strains are obtaining by screening strains having integrated into their genomes a gene encoding a 4HB-CoA transferase and/or PHA synthase, for polymer production. Processes for polymer production use recombinant systems that can utilize cheap substrates. Systems are provided which can utilize amino acid degradation pathways, α-ketoglutarate, or succinate as substrate.
